I Love How You Love Me was Bobby Vinton's eighteenth studio album, released in 1968. The title track was previously a major hit for the Paris Sisters in 1961.

Two singles came from this album: the title track, which reached No. 9 in the United States and " Halfway to Paradise" (US #23, previously a hit for Tony Orlando and Billy Fury). Cover versions include " Those Were the Days", " Till", " For Once in My Life", " Why Don't You Believe Me" and the Drifters' hit " Save the Last Dance for Me".
